On Thursday, W w. GaIbraith, OF
Hooper, the well kuown salt man,
commenced suit il claim and delivery.
TO recover possession Of a certain span
of mares that were held by one Broshin-
sky, Russian, who lives in the suburbs
of Ogden City. The necessary papers
were filed, and the writ of repleyin
placed in the hands of Constable NJ. T..
Brown for service. The officer. with a
Mr.. Blood, proceeded to the place of the
Russ, and demanded the mares, bur
met with point blank refusal, and
found them securely locked in the barn.
All argument was futile and Mr.
| Brown, being not quite certain whether
he was entitled to break open the door
and take the amin ais, without other
| process, left Mr.. Blood to guard the
place, While he went to his Office and
posted himself. He Convinced himself
that he possessed the necessary author
ity and returned for the mares. fully
prepared to demolish the barn door if
they were not forthcoming. In the
meantime, the Russ had left the place
10 charge of his wife, with Instructions
to let no one, under any circumstances
take the animals away, and the woman
faithfully performed the trust. The
mares being under double guard.
OF course, were there when Constable
Brown returned, and when she saw him
coming the lady planted herself firmly
IN front OF the door, and vehemently
forbid the officer to enter. Brown told
her to stand aside and let him go in,
but sherefused and he deliberately took
her nv tho and Iad har i
lance away, leaving her in the gentle
grasp of Mr.. Blood The officer then
found an axe and in trying to pry the
staple out of the door, broke the handle.
In the meantime the woman had been
making the most desperate struggles to
free herself from MIR. Blood and once
succeeded in getting hold of rock, and
at another club, and was preparing to
hurl the missiles at the constable
when they were taken from her.
She then grasped Mr.. Blood's hand in
her mouth and brought the claret from
an ugly wound made by her teeth and |
finally called two huge dogs, |
kept for watch dogs, to her as
slstance and set them on the men. |
One OF the dogsshad attacked Mr.. Blood |
and was about 10 catch his throat when |
Mr.. Brown struck the brute over the |
ASdO Will the DTOken dAQ6lY6. line |
skirmish in front of the barn door |
finally ended and the constable trium- |
phantly led the mares out and started |
away with them.
Mr.. Blood still held the unfuriated |
dame, who had all the time been regal
ing the gentleman with perfect TRADE
Of abuse and threatening to shoot, and
when Mr.. Brown had got safe distance
from the place quietly led her some dis
lance away from th7 house where he
her and ran. She was no
sooner free than she ran into the house
and securing big pistol came out and
hred at the retreatIng man.
The constable yesterday morning had
an information Tor resisting an officer
filed against the BroShinsky woman and
Deputy Sheriff Il II. Belknap went and
placed her under arrest. She accom-
panied him to the Justices Office where
she was trying very hard 10 get that
funcronary to listen TO the evidence in
the case before the examination began.
Her husband, alter having the nature
OF the case explained to him, started
out in search OF counsel and the case
was left in statu quo. There is some
talk OF arresting the man on charge of
disturbing the peace. It seems that
the people are not acquainted but very
slightly with the English language and
not at all with our laws and customs.
